If you’re a gravity addict, the Troy Lee Designs Rogue Knee/Shin Guards will defend your knees and shins as you hurl yourself downhill.

Like a standard cycling helmet, it’s composed of a hard-shell plastic outer layer that disperses impact over a large area, while allowing heat and moisture to disperse through spaced vent holes, and a soft EVA foam inner layer, which absorbs and lessens that impact.

The two layers, working together as part of a highly flexible, comfortable and breathable pad, will reinforce your leg while allowing it to move freely, so that you’ll barely notice you’re wearing a guard. You can also cinch it round your leg snugly using two adjustable straps.

Perfect for giving you the confidence to ride your fastest, it comes with its own protective, mesh lined bag that will keep it fresh between sessions.
